No system can detect a smoldering #crisis like a motivated and empowered workforce. Give workers a channel to report sensitive issues like suspected ethical breaches or toxic workplace behavior anonymously through an outside law firm or other third-party. bit.ly/2NCF5pN

Pausing to take a few deep breaths before diving headfirst into a #crisis reboots the rational decision-making center of our brain. It helps ground us in calm so we can tune out the drama and form our own clear, objective view of the situation. More at bit.ly/3jk3MGO.

#Values are a powerful tool for protecting #reputation, but not if they're hidden on a website. Set them out for workers as touchstones for decision-making. Asking "Is this in line with our values?" is good insurance against #crisis. #reputationrisk #riskmanagement #PR

Giving workers strict rules for every possible situation is a recipe for #disaster. Instead create a simple test to make them stop and think decisions through BEFORE they act and unwittingly spark a #reputation firestorm. bit.ly/3jhiEpz #reputationrisk #riskmanagement

Pandemic hygiene tips protect #reputation, too. Cut #crisis and #hrlaw risk by reminding workers to keep their hands to themselves, their noses clean and a safe distance from situations that could reflect badly on them and the company. bit.ly/3PxbB86 #reputationrisk

Feeding Google a diet of high-quality #content people want and search engines value not only boosts your search rankings. It makes it harder for negative search results to gain a toehold, better protecting your #onlinereputation against damage. bit.ly/3j0xArP #reputation

Having a #crisis plan is good. Not having a crisis is even better. Head off crises by building a risk-sensitive #culture where workers look out for #reputation risks and feel it's their job to sound an alarm if they think reputation may be in jeopardy. bit.ly/3iR7xDl.

Regular exercise boosts stamina, sharpens reflexes and builds coordination. Organizations that conduct regular #crisis exercises react faster, perform better under stress and have fewer missteps than those that leave performance and #reputation to chance. bit.ly/3PffvST

When people get in the habit of exercising they form other good habits without realizing it. Orgs that make #reputation a habit see fewer #crises as workers start making better #risk decisions at work, at home and online. bit.ly/37X3Unl #reputationrisk #crisismanagement
